The artist Salvo Naccari creates a sophisticated game of irreverent irony through works of extraordinary skill, whose technical accuracy recalls the finesse of Capodimonte ceramics or eighteenth-century Biscuit. In these "contemporary theaters," scenes of bourgeois life collide with the playful icons of pop culture, triggering an imaginative and biting critique of the overcoming of traditional canons in the face of the new habits of modernity.
Yet, in this clash, Art reaffirms its sovereignty: its constant stage presence reiterates that even the most irreverent subjects of mass culture are, ultimately, the fruit of a continuous reshaping of the classics.
These little theaters are "little jewels" that transcend aesthetics to become a vehicle for reflection: are we facing a threat of our time, aimed at leveling all reality and generating hierarchical disorientation?
The transgressive actions committed against great masterpieces provoke a shock, a necessary indignation that pushes us to the final question suggested by Maestro Enzo Venezia: "Should we look at the situations represented with curious amusement? Or as a threatening warning?"
